Re: golden cristata

Okay, you caught me...so I'll have to name it "April Fool's Gold" instead.  :-)  I actually took that photo last year of a blue cristata (see attached).

To be honest I tried to make it pink for April Fool's since that was a topic of conversation here recently, but the yellow looked much more realistic and it let me use the clever name.

Yes, Dennis...Fool's Gold indeed! Wish it were so....golden cristata surpasses the Maytag Red iris of the old iris-list fame. Very good joke. Ellen

What a flurry of excitement that caused!

Did you receive any orders for an offset of your iris?
